Octet rule means that all the valencies of atoms should be satisfied in the bonding process and 8 electrons in the valence shell. For lithium’s body centered crystal structure α=β=γ=90°. The angles describing a crystal structure are alpha, beta and gamma. The angle in the structure gives us idea about the arrangement of atoms like the repulsion and distance between them. Formal charge on lithium = 1 – 0 – 1 = 0 Lithium structure angle.Formal charge = valence electrons – lone pair of electrons – No.The equation for the calculation of formal charge is The calculation for formal charge of this molecule has been discussed below in detail. The formal charge on the lithium structure is zero. Lithium structure formal chargeįormal charge is the type of charge that resides on atom and helps in the process of predicting the lower energy. But there is a possibility that at 68097 atm and 22.85☌ it changes its shape from body centered cubic to face centered cubic. This structure is said to exist in stable form at 25☌. The lithium structure shape is body centered cubic or bcc. The crystal structure shape helps us in understanding the properties of the element. Hence delocalization of the electrons is not seen in the structure of lithium atom. First of all the structure is monoatomic and the electrons present in it are in their stable form. Resonance is not possible in lithium structure. Resonance helps us in understanding the bonding in molecule in a better way. Lewis dot structure of lithium Lithium structure resonance The below picture explains this in a better way. In the lewis dot structure Li is placed at the center and its valence electrons are represented as dots around the structure. Lithium being monoatomic is represented with the symbol Li.
Representing lithium as lewis dot structure Thus the electron present in the 2s will participate in the process of bonding. The other 2 electrons are in the 1s shell, which is very close to the nucleus and hence it will experience attraction force from nucleus. The electron that is available for bonding in lithium is one. The 1s orbital has 2 electrons and one electron is with the 2s orbital. We can observe that according to the written electronic configuration all the electrons occupy the s orbital. The electronic configuration for lithium is 1s 2 2s 1 as the atomic number is 3. Finding the electronic configuration of lithium. The below steps explain the representation of the structure of lithium. Lewis dot structure can be used to depict the structure of lithium. In the following sections we will study some important facts like structure, shape, hybridization, etc. Coming to occurrence, it does not occur as a metal but in combination with rocks (igneous) mineral springs water. The observed molecular weight of lithium is 6.94 g/mol. The reason for such high values is high energies of binding and ionization. It is observed to be solid at room temperature and under standard conditions its observed melting point is around 180☌ and melts at 1342☌. The atomic number of lithium, is 3 and the symbol used to represent it is Li. Let us understand more about lithium in following sections. Lithium is an alkali S block metal belonging to second period and group one of the periodic table.
